It sounds like a classic Darwin candidate to me. If no one has heard of the Darwin awards they are awards given to people who kill themselves in a spectacularly stupid fashion before having children. Thus they eliminate the stupid genes from the gene pool. This years winner is not one I can mention comfortably on a forum with minors, but the honourable mention (for special effort) was given to a guy who got drunk and then tried bungee jumping with a steel rope. They fished him out of the river, barely alive, the next day. However his feet were never found.
